Small front hatch

Small camera (fits most mirrorless), snacks, compass, paper etc. Especially for those guiding trips it is an essential hatch! Product code: 301310.

 

Footpegs

The footrest can be adjusted while sitting in the kayak even in rough water. The footrest also has a special pedal lock for securing the adjustment and end plugs for proper fastening of the rail. The adjusting of the footrest is smart and simple. It can be done only with feet. The good quality and the rigid structure combined together with the best materials ensure safe and easy use for a long time. The footrest has a rubber/soft material on it which helps a lot on long days or long expeditions to release the pressure from your feet. Product code: 501100

Seat

Kajaksport seat

I've tried over the years more than 100 different kayaks/seats. When we decide to build our own kayaks I had no second thoughts on which seat to choose from. We customize our molds/rim to have a perfect fit with the seat from Kajaksport. It is a remarkably comfortable seat. It comes with 3 sizes based on the kayak; LV, MV and HV. The seat includes fastening points for the Kajaksport deluxe backrest which we also use for maximum comfort. 
The seat can also take a piece of foam for extra comfort although to be honest it doesn't need to. Here is the link to the mentioned foam in case you want to order it. We keep a few in stock.
Product code for seat: 601110 (LV), 601111 (MV), 601112 (HV).
Product code for backrest: High 603211, Low 603210.

 

Backrest High & Low

Kajaksport backrest

Backrest deluxe has a 6-point fastening to ensure the best support and adjustment properties. Low profile offers plenty of room for rolling and allows free body rotation for efficient paddling. Deluxe backrest together with our seat is highly respected and praised combination among experienced kayakers and sea kayaking magazines. Higher profile offers great extra support for paddlers who have physical problems in back and therefore need additional support.  We use the high version in our HV model and the low in the MV and LV models.

Product code: 603211 and 603210 for the low.
